I have really been enjoying these podcasts and look forward to them every morning. Thank you for sending them out and teaching us. I also have to say that Acts 20:24 is my all time favorite Bible verse. I remember the first time I heard it and how it touched me deeply. It is a verse I long to live by, testifying to God’s love and grace. My life is all because of Him and I long to live for Him, even through my shortcomings.
